Calibre opening in blank page
Hi. I'm new here and new to ebooks and the calibre application.

I downloaded calibre a few days ago and it ran fine. Then for no apparent reason it started to open up 2 pages/tabs when I started it. One is the standard view (Calibre -|| calibre library ||) and the other is a blank page called calibre which masks the other. I've no idea why this should be happening. I removed the application and downloaded it again but it runs the same way.
Any ideas?

Cheers

Hi thanks for the very quick response. It Windows 7. Not sure what the service pack is. Not very computer literate I'm afraid.

Someone who uses W7 regularly will probably chime in.

Post a screenshot, it might help people understand what your issue looks like.

It opens to white screen. Is there much point in posting that?

Given the lack of responses in this thread, were I in your position I would consider it worthwhile, as clearly the description you have given is not sufficient for anyone to offer a suggestion. Picture worth a thousand words and all that...

Seeing your complet desktop might give us a clue.
I just had a person "Missing Metadata", turned out was only missing Comments in the book details. 10 seconds of looking at the picture vs 1000 seconds per question and answer

BTW I am suspecting this might be a corrupt/missing windows font
